VSIJ -T '.I T rrrs rTn rrr n nn r rr rn t f -T COLLEGE PR Large Audiences Splendid Production Music of Highest Order; Dancing Wonderful In spite of the determination of the weather man to hinder the success of the Grand Opera Carmen presented by Weber College Thursday March 20, a large crowd faced the storm in order to see that wonderful pro duction. Those people who stayed away missed one of the best known Grand Operas presented in a most interesting manner by a very competent local caste. Mrs. Pauline Waterfall taking the role of Carmen was well trained in the art of ensnaring men. She put her part over very well as a real Spanish dancer and vamp. She used her powerful feminine forces to ensnare Don Jose, then threw him over for the dashing Escamillo, the Toreador.Michealla played by Miss Lillian Eastman caused favorable comment and earned much applause. Her sweet appealing soprano voice tit-ted the part perfectly. Another noticable feature was her expression while taking her part. She was indeed a very fitting character to take a message of love and devotion from a fond mother to her son. To have said that James Lindsay would ever act on the stage would have been ruled out upon observing him in the halls, but the surprise came when he was seen tak inc" the heavy part of Don Jose. The expressions of dis gust and then of love, of an ger, then remorse were so pro nounced that his lace alone told the very thoughts of hi heart. James portrayed the part of first a stern but kind lover, a soldier and lastly a murderer. Through the entire performance he worked him self right into the very part. Last but not least of the leading soloists was George Manning in the part of Es camillo the bull lighter. Mr. Manning" took his part very well Some other characters that are to be commended arc: Mvra Wright, Ted Woods and llensley Cortez. . The chorus which consisted of thirty-five voices, also received favorable comment and much applause. Their singing was of the highest order. The twenty-six dancers under the direction of Mrs. Sophia Witherall Reed added much to the success of the affair. They presented a very beautiful scene m their gypsy dancing costumes. The solo dance given by Miss Marian Ure was particularly enjoyed by the audience. Special mention should be made of Mr. Wade Stephens and his wonderful work on the piano. Mr. Stephens play ed lor the entire opera andi much credit is due him. The whole affair was a grand success and for it much praise is due rrolessor .lann- mg and ins assistants Mis Mary Woolley, .Mrs. Sophia Pie to present many such per-Witherall Reed, Professor O- formances in the future. Enjoy HUN TSVILLE OPERA HOUSE FILLED TO CAPACITY A Grand Opera by a Junior College in which the chorus and principal are regular members of the schoool is a rare thing but it was done and done well. Wednesday night before a crowd that taxed old Hunlsvilles opera house to the groaning point the singers from Weber pre sented "Carmen" with all its beauty even though somewhat abbreviated. "Principals,, chorus, dancers and Wade Stephens at the piano," said Mr. Manning', who made the performance possible, "did themselves proud, and reflected great credit upon the college." Mrs. Waterfall as Carmen was great. She is a perfect vamp in red silk togs, and "Our Jim" was some gigantic as Don Jose both in size and singing". Lillian Eastman was the picture and essence of tenderness and sweetness as Michaella, and Rulon sure enough, his hair turned black threw the bull in great form as Escamillo, the Toreador. The costumes were beautiful. The chorus made their own. With proper training" and careful direction Ogden can have served to her Grand Operas by her leading educational institution in a very creditable manner. We do not need Caruso's nor Farrars for we can develop them. Announcement "PUT THAT IN THE HERALD BOX" The Herald "Suggestion Box" is to be placed in a conspicuous place in the halls as of old. The slogan, "Put that in the Herald Pox" is also to be revived. The object is to make the I lerald a students paper as much as possible. Any saying or joke heard around school, any trivial incident or fact that might be interesting should be put in "The Pox" while it is fresh on vour mind. If you don't want to write it up give us the farts and we will try to find some one who will. "Put Pox." that in the Herald MANY STUDENTS HEAR CHICAGO CIVIC OPERA A number of Weber music lovers, journeyed to Salt Lake City, last Monday evening to see the performance of the Chicago Civic Opera Co. They all came back, enthuisi-astic in their praise of the Opera, overjoyed to think they had taken advantage of such a rare opportunity. born, well and Mr. Stephens as :is the characters and chorus. u eoer L.olk-ge should lie Missionary Praises School's Progress Advises Students To Avail Themselves of Acorn; Speaks Well of Seminary The Weber Herald has just received a communication from Mr. Thomas G. Gibby, a former student of Weber who is laboring as a missionary in Tennessee. He acknowledges receipt of the February 21, issue of the Herald, and commends the school for its progress and ideals as he finds them expressed therein. The Herald for February 21, contained a report of the Theological Seminary on which he makes the following comment. "The work being done By the Seminary Department, in an endeavor to more fully e- quip students for missionary work is very commendable. Those meetings held in dif ferent wards, after the order of open air meetings, will do much to increase the efficiency of the prospective missionary. Self expression increases confidence and when one has that opportunity before com ing to the mission held, it saves valuable time in the field, as well as saving the Elder undue embarrassment, and makes him a much more effective worker." Of particular interest to us are his statements concerning" the Acorn. "In my trunk I have a very valuable volume. When feeling a little lonesome for old friends, to my trunk I go, and from the bottom take the nineteen twenty-two issue of the 'Acorn'. In this volume there are the faces of old associates of days at Weber, besides many interesting e-vents of the school history of that year. While away down here in the hills of Tennessee the past twenty-two months, I have found much satisfaction and consolation from this valued treasure. It is my advice that all students who have the least expectation of a mission, avail themselves of the year book. And sometimes one receives a call without expectations, so the advice applies to all students, for they will often wish to see old faces, and then the Acorn alone will answer that wish. It is my wish that you shall accomplish the purpose for which the paper is published to advertize, and make of Weber College, a bigger and better school." Mr Gibby's friends at We ber unite in wishing him the same degree of success in his work that he wishes us in ours. GIRLS ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED The girls organization was completed last Friday. Ruth Folkman, vice president of the student body became president of the Girls Association by popular acclamation. The other officers are; Katherine Cannon, vice president; Gladys Playlock, secretary and treasurer; Dcvorah Hoxer, yell master; and Hah Xaisbett, athletic manager. With these live officers great things can be expected from the girls during the rest of the veai". PROMINENT WEBER STUDENT LEAVING Mr. Clarence Brown, one of Weber's most prominent stu dents and a member of the Sophomore class, is going to discontinue his school work at Weber. It is not known whether he will attend the University of Utah or go to the University of Chicago. He is at present straightening up his work here. Mr. Brown graduated from Weber High School after which he filled a mission for the L. D. S. Church. He was a member of Weber High School's debating team for three years, and was a member of the college team this year. He was also editor of i the school paper, the fore part of this year. He was one of the instigators of the Pink Elephant club of Weber, and has done much, through that organization, to promote activities in the school. Mr. Brown will continue to study English which he intends to major in. It is also rumored about that he intends to get married in the near future. He is to be commended on his industriousness and the students wish him the best of success in all his adventures. Freshmen Planning Snappy Party The Freshman class, not to be outdone or even rivaled by the Soph's, are planning a party lor the near luture. Right at present they have their hands full preparing for the Prom, but they are deter mined that that gala occas sion shall not end the social activities of this lively and enthusiastic class. They are so interested in the welfare of the school that they intend to make this party another one to be remembered. It is understood that many new features will be introduced at this party. The decorators are working" out a color scheme which will be most striking. The date of the party is not yet determined, but will be announced later. Vincimus Club to Use Art Room Due to the school removing the old Grix building, the Vincimus club has been without a room for some time, but they have gained permission to use the od art room at the back of the main building". lhcy nave moved equip ment to their new headquarters and this part of the cam pus will soon see action. Their Vice President, Mr Edward White, has discontinued school this quarter, and this has handicapped them because their president and secretary and treasurer are both student body officers. Put they anticipate a very lively time during" the rest of the quarter. AN INCIDENTAL VALUE Did you ever stop to think huw irritating it must be to a dog to have so very much to say to his master, and not be equipped in any language in which to mention it? A-merican Boy. IS nRiPTiTh t f? - ? r-f -!? - jJU ACORN STAFF GIVEN SEPARATE OFFICE For some time it has been noticed that Miss Wilson and Mr. Poulter, editor and assistant editor of the Acorn, have been loitering around the halls, but they have generally had a pencil and paper in their hands. In fact, it has been discovered of late that they were actually busy trying to get subscriptions for the year book or collect for the same. Some of our economists have said that this Acorn staff might just as well use the student body room for their work, but these ar dent conservers of floor space didn't take into consideration the fact that this room is al- ready overcrowded by the student officers and the Her ald staff. Some keen obser vers, however, cognizant ot this fact reported that the A- corn staff could have a room of their own in which their work could be carried on and have no interruptions. These last observers presented such convincing evidence that it was decided to give room 42 over to this work. It is anticipated that this room will see much action in the future. School Play Selected "The Charm School" has been selected for the College play this year. It was chosen by Harvey Taylor and Bertha Eccles Wright after carefully reading and studying" many other good plays. It requires nineteen good, strong characters. Very rare and g-ood judgment was shown in the selection of the play, as it does not star one or two par ticular characters; but gives many an opportunity to dis play their talents. The cast will be selected entirely by means of try outs. About seventy five stu dents will try for different parts. This week has been devot ed to studying", preparatory to the try-outs, which will start Monday. The play is expected to be ready for presentation within seven weeks. Sunday School Dance at Weber On Wednesday, March 26, the annual Weber Stake Sunday School dance will be held at Weber College. This af fair has in the past created much real wholesome amusement and it is expected this year to outrival all former occasions of its kind. The Stake officers have been preparing for this dance for a long time, and many new features will be introduced. Some new dances that are said to be very entertaining" will be presented to the people, and all in all it promises to be a great time. Next to English, Spanish is the most used language in America.

Buy From Our Advertizers Sophs Hold Regular Surprise Party Claim Freshmen Are Missing Many Good Times; Expect to Continue Peppy Program Wednesday night, March 12th the Sophomore class staged a very successful surprize party at the home of their class advisor, Prof. A. L. Winsor. The evening was spent in playing Bunco. The first prize was won by Mable Gibson while Dr. Lind proudly carried off the booby prize. A very delicious lunch was served afterward. The color scheme was carried out in green and favors were of the nature to accord with Saint Patrick's Day. The faculty and the class of '24 were very well represented at the party, This is the third Sophomore party given this year, the sec ond party having been given at the home of Miss Louise Fisher in the form of a Leap Year party. The class intends to go on with a peppy pro gram and advise the Freshmen to wake up and become aware of the fact that they are missing many good times they might be enjoying by having" class parties. Notes From Address by C. A. Smurthwaite I want to bring to your attention the coming responsibility. It is the fellowship of youth for peace, the greatest subject that can be brought to the attention of the college people. At the present time all over the world is this great subject of friendship of youth toward peace. We are a religious people; the most religious State in the Union. This school of yours here is primarily a religious institution. The test for people is the great test: "By their fruits shall ye know them." I wish to call your atten tion to the last war. Forty years previous to the last war, six great nations were preparing for it. Six chief European nations for forty years of peace expended $34,025,000,0)0. in preparation for war. The direct cost of the war represents a total of 1,086 billion dollars, and the indirect 150 billion. This total money cost would represent $20,000. for every hour of the time that has passed since Christ was born. This war cost the world $9,010,000,000. every hour we were fighting. This amount exceeds the expenditures of public schools of Utah and Idaho in two years. The United States spent in 1922, 98 percent for war purposes and only 2 percent for research and educational de velopment. It is up to us to do something. We are the re sponsible citizens of the fu ture. For- Sale One 1923-24 Student Body Card. Good as new. (Never been used.) Original value $10.00. Will sell at liberal discount.

BOTH DEBATES Friday evening, March 14, the Weber negative debating team was decisively defeated by the affirmative team of the B. Y. C. of Logan, Utah, on the subject, Resolved: That for the State of Utah, the Classified Property Tax should be Substituted for the General Property Tax. The decision as rendered by the judg'es was unanimous in favor of the affirmative. Mr. Evan 13. Murray and Miss Eva Adams of B. Y. C. upheld the affirmative and Mr. Clarence Brown and Mr. Rulon Bues of Weber Colleg'e spoke for the negative. The same evening the We ber College affirmative team consisting of Mr. Junius Tribe and Mr. Leland Mon-son, and debating the same subject, met ..defeat at the hands of the Ricks College of Rexburg, Idaho, in the Weber Auditorium. Mr. Evans and Mr. Nelson represented Ricks College. The decision of the judges was 2 to 1 for the negative.Both debates were given before very small audiences. Due to the fact that Ricks triumphed over the 13. Y. C. affirmative team at Rexburg they become the champions of this division and will meet the champions of the Southern division for the State Junior College title in the near future. Rules For Achievement Judge Rolapp of the Amalgamated Sugar Company delivered a talk to the students on "Achievement." It takes only two things to achieve. One is a will to a- chieve and the other is the willingness to pay the price. If you want to achieve, if 'OU mean it in your heart, if you are willing to pay the price, there is nothing that can stop you from success. But the price is going to be difficult to pay, and stability is needed. Stability is the first requisite in achievement, and the first requisite in success. The next thing needed to gain success, in my opinion, is thoroughness, know more about the thing you are going into than anyone else. Do not look for reward. The fellow that looks for reward never g'ets it. The things we seek for don't usu-1 ally come to us. Mr. Rolapp summed up his talk by giving four rules to go by: l'irst, determination ol purpose; second, inorougn- ness; third, preparedness, Know more aooui your uusi-ness than anybody else; and fourth, service to mankind. Ability frequently carries! with it the penalty of envy from those who aren't able. Every upper dog must expect to be annoyed by maliciously active fleas. AR. 28 Prom, To Be Affair Arrangements Now Completed For Big Event The Weber College Promenade, which is to be held Friday, March 28 at the Berth-ana, promises to be one of the finest affairs ever held in Ogden. It is to be a formal party. Many of the business men and influential men of Ogden are taking" a keen interest in the occassion. All the students and lovers of high class entertainment have been looking forward to this event for a long time. Nor are they to be dissappointed in it. The . Freshmen class has been working very hard and no details will be overlooked. This, being the first College Prom ever held in Ogden, it is expected to set an example lor those that follow. Because Weber College always establishes traditions of the highest order it must follow that this first Prom will be an affair of such high order and such a success that it will be the mark for all future college classes to strive for. This makes it foremost in the minds of all Weber students. Then too, the very nature of the occasion is causing the young" people to look forward with the anticipation of appearing for the first time, jn many cases, in formal dress and being a part of such a beautiful prom as this promises to be. Much credit for the preparations is due to the Prom Committee which consists of Van Tanner, Myra Wright, Hellen Wilson, Rulon Jenkins, Prof. Winsor, Miss Noble and Prof. Blaylock.

Gibby, a former student of Weber who is laboring as a missionary in Tennessee. He acknowledges receipt of the February 21, issue of the Herald, and commends the school for its progress and ideals as he finds them expressed therein. The Herald for February 21, contained a report of the Theological Seminary on which he makes the following comment. "The work being done By the Seminary Department, in an endeavor to more fully e- quip students for missionary work is very commendable. Those meetings held in dif ferent wards, after the order of open air meetings, will do much to increase the efficiency of the prospective missionary. Self expression increases confidence and when one has that opportunity before com ing to the mission held, it saves valuable time in the field, as well as saving the Elder undue embarrassment, and makes him a much more effective worker." Of particular interest to us are his statements concerning" the Acorn. "In my trunk I have a very valuable volume. When feeling a little lonesome for old friends, to my trunk I go, and from the bottom take the nineteen twenty-two issue of the 'Acorn'. In this volume there are the faces of old associates of days at Weber, besides many interesting e-vents of the school history of that year. While away down here in the hills of Tennessee the past twenty-two months, I have found much satisfaction and consolation from this valued treasure. It is my advice that all students who have the least expectation of a mission, avail themselves of the year book. And sometimes one receives a call without expectations, so the advice applies to all students, for they will often wish to see old faces, and then the Acorn alone will answer that wish. It is my wish that you shall accomplish the purpose for which the paper is published to advertize, and make of Weber College, a bigger and better school." Mr Gibby's friends at We ber unite in wishing him the same degree of success in his work that he wishes us in ours. GIRLS ASSOCIATION ORGANIZED The girls organization was completed last Friday. Ruth Folkman, vice president of the student body became president of the Girls Association by popular acclamation. The other officers are; Katherine Cannon, vice president; Gladys Playlock, secretary and treasurer; Dcvorah Hoxer, yell master; and Hah Xaisbett, athletic manager. With these live officers great things can be expected from the girls during the rest of the veai".

Some new dances that are said to be very entertaining" will be presented to the people, and all in all it promises to be a great time. Next to English, Spanish is the most used language in America.

Notes From Address by C. A. Smurthwaite I want to bring to your attention the coming responsibility. It is the fellowship of youth for peace, the greatest subject that can be brought to the attention of the college people. At the present time all over the world is this great subject of friendship of youth toward peace. We are a religious people; the most religious State in the Union. This school of yours here is primarily a religious institution. The test for people is the great test: "By their fruits shall ye know them." I wish to call your atten tion to the last war. Forty years previous to the last war, six great nations were preparing for it. Six chief European nations for forty years of peace expended $34,025,000,0)0. in preparation for war. The direct cost of the war represents a total of 1,086 billion dollars, and the indirect 150 billion. This total money cost would represent $20,000. for every hour of the time that has passed since Christ was born. This war cost the world $9,010,000,000. every hour we were fighting. This amount exceeds the expenditures of public schools of Utah and Idaho in two years. The United States spent in 1922, 98 percent for war purposes and only 2 percent for research and educational de velopment. It is up to us to do something. We are the re sponsible citizens of the fu ture. For- Sale One 1923-24 Student Body Card. Good as new. (Never been used.) Original value $10.00. Will sell at liberal discount.

BOTH DEBATES Friday evening, March 14, the Weber negative debating team was decisively defeated by the affirmative team of the B. Y. C. of Logan, Utah, on the subject, Resolved: That for the State of Utah, the Classified Property Tax should be Substituted for the General Property Tax. The decision as rendered by the judg'es was unanimous in favor of the affirmative. Mr. Evan 13. Murray and Miss Eva Adams of B. Y. C. upheld the affirmative and Mr. Clarence Brown and Mr. Rulon Bues of Weber Colleg'e spoke for the negative. The same evening the We ber College affirmative team consisting of Mr. Junius Tribe and Mr. Leland Mon-son, and debating the same subject, met ..defeat at the hands of the Ricks College of Rexburg, Idaho, in the Weber Auditorium. Mr. Evans and Mr. Nelson represented Ricks College. The decision of the judges was 2 to 1 for the negative.Both debates were given before very small audiences. Due to the fact that Ricks triumphed over the 13. Y. C. affirmative team at Rexburg they become the champions of this division and will meet the champions of the Southern division for the State Junior College title in the near future. Rules For Achievement Judge Rolapp of the Amalgamated Sugar Company delivered a talk to the students on "Achievement." It takes only two things to achieve. One is a will to a- chieve and the other is the willingness to pay the price. If you want to achieve, if 'OU mean it in your heart, if you are willing to pay the price, there is nothing that can stop you from success. But the price is going to be difficult to pay, and stability is needed. Stability is the first requisite in achievement, and the first requisite in success. The next thing needed to gain success, in my opinion, is thoroughness, know more about the thing you are going into than anyone else. Do not look for reward. The fellow that looks for reward never g'ets it. The things we seek for don't usu-1 ally come to us. Mr. Rolapp summed up his talk by giving four rules to go by: l'irst, determination ol purpose; second, inorougn- ness; third, preparedness, Know more aooui your uusi-ness than anybody else; and fourth, service to mankind. Ability frequently carries! with it the penalty of envy from those who aren't able. Every upper dog must expect to be annoyed by maliciously active fleas.

All the students and lovers of high class entertainment have been looking forward to this event for a long time. Nor are they to be dissappointed in it. The .
